LEGO CUUSOO Land Rover Defender 110 | By Sheepo

Sheepo is the moniker of a civil engineering student from Madrid, Spain, who’s built something akin to a LEGO masterpiece: a fully-functional 1:8.5 scale version of the Land Rover Defender 110. Operated by remote control, the toy vehicle has a five-speed gearbox, transfer case offering four-wheel or two-wheel drive mode, and four functional disc brakes. Additional details include opening doors, a working suspension and folding bench seats in the back. Top speed is around 2.5 mph. 2,800 parts and seven motors went into the build. The only thing missing are cup holders. Sheepo, aka Fernando, has submitted his creation to LEGO CUUSOO, meaning that if the kit gets 10,000 votes, then LEGO will put it into production.
